Hour 2: The First Date Interview | 10-16-25
Description
Lionel dissects the infamous interview with Zohran MaMdani labeling the soft questioning as journalistic "malpractice" for allowing him to "slither away" from key issues. The episode eviscerates Mamdani’s controversial stances on arresting Netanyahu and his use of "blanket language about justice" while ducking direct responsibility. The host zeroes in on the dangers of "Restorative Justice," an idea that sounds noble in theory but, in practice, becomes "offender centered". Lionel argues that this system turns real justice into mere "therapy" and treats the criminal and the victim as equal participants in a shared tragedy. Plus, analysis of the chaotic New York political landscape, the debate dynamics involving Andrew Cuomo and Curtis Sliwa.
